‘Happy Are the Poor’: An Austrian Tale of Roundabout Production*
By Hiroshi Ohta,
Professor of Economics, Aoyama Gakuin University, Tokyo
For Presentation at National Taiwan University Workshop on International Trade and Industrial Organization, November 1, 2008
ABSTRACT
Economic development may not require capital-intensive methods of production. Using a simple Austrian model, we show that if labor productivity in the primary sector is low enough, roundabout methods of production become feasible. Moreover, it is the more labor-intensive methods that yield the greater final output. A higher labor productivity may appear to be geared to greater final output, all the more if combined with a higher output elasticity of capital under more capital-intensive roundabout methods of production. But when primary labor productivity is high enough (relative to the total factor productivity of final output) the roundabout methods become strictly inferior to the direct method. Thus, whenever roundabout methods are feasible, the more labor-intensive methods become superior to the more capital-intensive methods. If output elasticity of capital is large enough, labor-intensive methods become infeasible, and roundabout methods fail.
